    Abstract:
    We discussed the advances and clinical issue including complications in the treatment of gastric cancer infiltrating the adjacent organs. Recent years, the proportion of the patients with gastric cancer infiltrating the adjacent organs are decreasing, but there isn't remarkable advances in the treatment result of them. That is due to the fact that about one half of them has distant metastasis, such as peritoneal dissemination or liver metastasis. Whatever the survival rate of the patients who was performed combined resection is better than unresected cases. The postoperative complications of the combined resection cases is two times as much as the uncombined resected cases. Therefore we should perform combined radical resection for the patients without distant metastasis, and for the patients with distant metastasis, we should perform palliative surgery for the purpose of improving QOL.
